Automotive group Cycle & Carriage and electric vehicle (EV) brand Smart unveiled their Smart #1 Pro+ and the Smart #1 BRABUS for the first time in Singapore on Mar 28.
The Smart #1 range of all-electric, intelligent, urban Sports Utility Vehicles (SUV) will be the first of Smart's EVs to be sold in Singapore since Cycle & Carriage was announced as the brand's general distributor. Local sales will start from the end of April.
The Smart #1 Pro+ has a range of over 400km and can accelerate from 0 to 100kmh in 6.7 seconds for the base model.
The urban SUV’s interior is designed to maximise the sense of space, with frameless doors, a floating halo roof, ambient light and a floating centre console.
The car is also equipped with advanced, human-centric technology such as a customised infotainment user interface, AI-based voice control and a dedicated app environment.
Meanwhile, the Smart #1 BRABUS has a peak power output of 428 hp, and is capable of accelerating from 0 to 100kmh in 3.9 seconds.
The car will also be kitted with a specially-tuned chassis, BRABUS-designed seats, Alcantara-lined steering wheel and plated pedals.
The engineering, research and development of these new cars is led by Smart’s R&D team, with the Mercedes-Benz Global design team overseeing vehicle design, said Smart and Cycle & Carriage in its joint press release.
“Smart brings the best of the East and the West, with the combined efforts of Mercedes-Benz’s global design team and Smart’s engineering expertise,” said managing director of Cycle & Carriage Singapore, Wilfrid Foo.
“In this regard, we firmly believe that Smart #1 will be a compelling proposition for car enthusiasts who are looking to switch to a future-ready EV.”
In the lead-up to the launch of the showroom at Level 3 of the Mercedes-Benz Centre in the second half of 2024, car enthusiasts can look forward to a “smart” series of events.
This includes the official car launch at VivoCity shopping centre in April and pop-ups in popular malls.
Smart will also partner with events such as Sunset Cinema at Tanjong Beach, Sentosa, as well as institutions like LASALLE College of the Arts.
